46 Ashley Drive, Halibut Bay

$849,900

Only 15 minutes from the city yet you’ll feel miles away. How could you not with the tranquil setting and stunning features like the handmade pond with a waterfall, exquisite gardens, cathedral ceilings, and huge windows that frame the sea? Whether you’re waking up in the deluxe master, chilling in the main floor sunroom or enjoying a tea on the shoreline deck, you’ll be captivated by the jaw-dropping ocean view. But that’s not all. The extensive woodwork throughout and sunken living room gives the main house a warm, log-cabin vibe. Yet the private top floor master is far from what you would find in a cottage. I’m talking about a large fireplace, huge ensuite with a soaker tub and a separate sunroom with that glorious view. The open kitchen and spacious dining areas provide a perfect setting to enjoy everything from lobster boils to beef tenderloin. The main floor “snug” makes a lovely home office and the finished basement space would be a stunning seaside yoga room. After all, the kids won’t need it since they have their own separate games chalet that includes a pool/ping-pong table! Speaking of secondary spaces, don’t forget to check out the in-law suite with a fireplace and huge bump-out sunroom as well as the completely separate “au pair” quarters. I didn’t even mention the massive built-in back-up generator, three garages, cedar storage closets or heat pumps. There’s no denying that a peaceful, ocean-side retreat like this is seriously good for the soul. It's good for the pocketbook as well since it's perfectly priced given the size and location of this property. Let’s go take a look so you can see for yourself. One breath of that crisp, salty air and you’ll be hooked!
